FAQ

We offer support to anyone who has been affected by a cancer diagnosis including people with cancer, caregivers, and the bereaved. Our program calendar of events will tell you whether a particular support group is for everyone, just people with the disease, or just caregivers. No referral is needed. You can use our services from the time you are diagnosed until you decide they are no longer needed.

We offer support groups, mind/body classes and educational and social programs.

All of our services are free of cost.

Hope Connections does not have a medical staff, nor do we provide medical services or medical advice. Individuals seek their own treatment as they deem necessary. The program is meant to support the treatment prescribed by a patient's healthcare team and is not a substitute for traditional medical care.
